Chapter 278 Who are you? (2/2)
”.....”
In that moment, Doctor Xie's body froze and all the hair on his body stood straight. The ghostly sound stopped him from injecting the needle into the IV. He looks around the room and due to no light, he could barely make out what everything is. His eyes squint to adjust his vision and he scans the room again.
However, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. He laughed inside for thinking foolishly. Everything was just his imagination. If not then the wind from outside only.
Quickly shaking the thought away, he continues with what he was doing. He needed to do it fast or else a nurse might enter the room in any moment. He takes a deep breath and place the tip on the Iv.
”~Woooooooooooo—!”
This time, the ghostly sound was loud and more clearer. Doctor Xie's entire body froze more and he could not move. The darkness of the hospital room made everything look even more horrifying. Never in his years working as a doctor has he been this terrified. Let alone hear something like his. He knows that all hospitals are haunted with the deceased, but....
As he though of this, the lights in the room start to flicker uncontrollably. His body stiffen and he could feel all the hair on his body run away like crazy.
He jumps and takes a step back not realizing that he had dropped the needle in his hand. His eyes widen in red as he trembling looks around the room.
”W-wh...who is it?”
His words tremble in stutter in fear. He looks in every direction of the room, until.....
”.....”
In one corner of the room, a dark figure appears from within the wall. His head slowly turn to the figure and his soul left his body.
It had pale skin as white as a blank sheet of paper. So pale it was almost transparent. It was dressed in an old hospital gown and it's head tilt to one side as it's long dark hair that touch the floor cover it's face.
Doctor Xie gulped with great difficulty and he points at it with fear written all over his face.
”W-Who are you? W-w-w-why are y-y-you h-h-here?”
The figure did not move, but stood in silence making Doctor Xie even more terrified. He quickly steady himself and lift his chin.
”I asked you, w-who—-”
”GIVE WHAT YOU HAVE TAKEN——!!!!”
Before he could finish his words, the figure suddenly flies towards him and it's hair pulls back revealing a horrific disoriented face. Fingers with sharp yellow nails cover in blood stretch out to grab him.
”AAAHHHH—!!!”
Doctor Xie screamed at the top of his lungs and runs out of the room. His foot hit the chairs and his figure slammed into the wall but all he cares about right now was getting the hell out of the room.
*SLAMM!!*
The door was shut and silence return to the room of grandmother Nuo. The ghostly figure also no longer moved as it flickers and slowly disappears.
Outside of the room, Doctor Xie ran as if his life depended on it. He wasn't thinking straight and crash into a person. Due to the impact, Doctor Xie fell to the ground while the other person used the wall to steady.
”Doctor Xie, what in the world is wrong with you?”
Doctor Dong frown and steady himself. He looks at Doctor Xie and he was loss for all words. The man looked like a mess, it was as if he had seen a ghost!
Doctor Xie jumped due to his fear, but he quickly gather himself together. He stood up and shook his head as he tries to hide the expression on his face.
”N-n-nothing. It's nothing...”
Not waiting for the head doctor to say anything, he continues in the direction of his office. He needed to go somewhere he know is safe and calm his head.
Doctor Dong glance at Doctor Xie's retorting figure. He did not say anything and continues in the opposite direction.
”Pfffahahahahahh!!!”
While Doctor Xie was shivering in fear, outside of the hospital, a faint, yet loud laughter could be heard echoing in the night sky.
Lin Hui held onto his phone and tablet. He laughed so hard, he was on the verge of crying. Setting his phone down, he held his stomach and wipe a tear from the corner of his eye.
”Hmmf! Serves you right, you old evildoer!”
